Um panorama sociojurídico do trabalho infantil em Minas Gerais

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to show the reality of child labor in Brazil, especially in Minas Gerais, a region that stands out in a negative way for the problem, deepening in the way the Law Institutions have dealt with the issue, since there are great challenges for its combat. Thus, in addition to studying the literature, without intending to exhaust it, news from the MPT, TRT3 and the ILO, lectures with views of labor prosecutors and exemplary cases of public civil actions at the regional level will also be addressed. The working hypothesis is that there are advances in the way that labor institutions are dealing with the existing challenges, although there is still a long way to reach the intended objective. As a conclusion, it can be said that there are institutional concerns directed towards the need for preventive public policies, justified by the social and political issues present in Brazil.
